Regarding men's dress shirts .... what is the difference between
oxford, pinpoint oxford, and broadcloth? I think oxford is a heavy
material and broadcloth is much lighter? What is pinpoint oxford in
relation to these? Is it in between?

Oxford is a weave rather than a weight. Pinpoint Oxford is the same
weave in finer threads, I believe. Poplin is another weave rather than
a weight. It comes in everything from fine silk shirt fabric to heavy
cotton mix furnishing fabrics! :) Broadcloth merely means the fabric
is woven on wider looms - usually 50" inches or more.

If you don't know what weight and hand the cloth is, get samples and see
which you like best.
